Family Retreat

HELD AT KAMALASHILA TIBETAN BUDDHIST CENTRE
​3-4 May 2025

Thank you to Zara and Ann for the organising and facilitating such a beautiful weekend of family connection. It truly felt like stepping into a dream – where every detail was thoughtfully taken care of from the nourishing food and cosy accommodation to the sun-drenched nature play and the gentle rhythm of meditations and meaningful exchanges.

Khenpo la’s presence and wisdom deeply enriched the experience for both the children and us adults, offering inspiring insights and gentle guidance for living and interacting more peacefully, mindfully and compassionately with one another.

Some highlights for us included the marshmallow meditation, playing soccer and enjoying a picnic on the saddle, the parent session with Khenpo la, and watching all the children playing together and offering their thoughtful reflections in the gompa.
​
Our hearts are full after this weekend. Our children had the most wonderful time and are already counting down the days until the next retreat.
